A Conference of Carrots


As I walked into the conference

The speaker behind the podium

Asked a question of the audience

The question was about bottles of wine

And how many might be purchased

If a certain amount of money was spent

As I am a mute mathematical genius

I answered correctly to polite applause

I soon noticed a girl with shock blonde hair

Smiling at me with her head slightly bowed

I knew then that this was the beginning

Of a great friendship amongst equals
